Course Overview

Build a strong foundation in the field of computer networking by exploring core network concepts. A Local Area Network (LAN) is a computer network that interconnects computers within an office and typically connects to other networks.
Implement an IPv4 addressing scheme within a LAN and discover the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) reference model for troubleshooting network communication issues. Participants will implement the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol suite (TCP/IP) within a LAN. Knowledge of TCP/IP protocols is essential for communication between differing applications, processes, and operating systems.

With the skills gained in this course, you will be able to describe and implement a LAN.

Prior to enrollment it is recommended that you have taken CCTO101 Windows Desktop Operating System, equivalent courses, or have practical experience.
